    2 Stars ☼ A Clockwork Orange (Only takes 5 minutes) Review with images 08/05/2005
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Great price... think that's it.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages ORANGE, smells, streaky

    You wouldn't believe the bargain I found when buying Piz Buin Mousse from Boots.com. I only wanted a starter kit because I knew how expensive self tans can be and I wasn't prepared to spend a lot of money to look like an orange (it has been known!). For £3.32 (normal price £4.99) I was able to get a 'Try Me' Starter Kit containing: * 50ml Piz Buin (Mid) Self Tan Foam (not quite a mousse) * 150ml Neutrogena Visibly Clear Gentle Exfoliating Wash * Applicator Gloves * And it all comes in a nice little cosmetic bag The Neutrogena face wash is normally £3.99 so it was as though I bought the ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages quick drying, natural colour

    Disadvantages Disadvantages quite difficult to apply

    As part of my mission to find the perfect self-tan I noticed Piz Buin Self Tanning Foam Max in Tescos on Thursday night. Normally £11.99, I noticed it was on special offer making it £8.99 – a saving of £3.00. We’ve all seen the advert – the one that claims that you don’t have to walk around in weird positions until it dries as it dries quickly. This particular formula comes in Max or Mid, but they only seemed to have Max. I picked it up and decided to give it a go. The Packaging It comes in a cream box that says Piz Buin in orange writing at the top. Directly underneath it says ... more

    4 Stars No more white legs - thank god 22/08/2003
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Quick drying. Nice colour

    Disadvantages Disadvantages A bit pricey

    I was first introduced to this product by a friend who was always going on about how good it was. Eventually she wore me down and I tried it. I'm not usually one for self tanning as I usually find it goes streaky - probably me that can never apply it correctly. However I was getting very fed up of having a brown face and arms (funny that but they always seem to be a nice colour) but having white legs. In summer I like to wear shorter skirts. (Knee length actually but that is short for me) Anyway she convinced me to try this stuff. At the time it was on special offer at Boots. Usually it is £11 ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Good colour, quick to apply, quick drying

    Disadvantages Disadvantages A bit patchy, no guide tint, disliked texture, wouldn't use on face

    You don't usually notice how pale and pasty your skin is till the first really sunny day of summer. You put on your t-shirt and ahhhh! my skin is so white it's see-through! This happened to me yesterday and so off I went to Boots where I bought the Piz Buin Self Tanning Mousse in MID. I've self tanned before and so exfoliated well to avoid dark patches on the elbows etc. Always leave your skin to settle to its natural ph level after showering/bathing before you apply any tanning product. So ready to tan I applied the mousse in smoothing circles to avoid streaks. It didn't exactly sink in and ... more

    4 Stars Quick review of Piz Buin Self Tanning Mousse by jessicaaero 26/04/2007
    i bought mine in boots also and i bought a glove to apply it with, it spreads on real easily but also hard to see where i was applying it. im use to it now and think its a lovely tanning mousse,. i use the mediun as im pale and dark prob wouldnt suit. the med looks like a natural tan. what i like about it also is that it drys in 10 minutes compared to some take an hour. i would recommened this mousse but do it the night before so in the morning you can top it up nicely ... more
